What are you doing to get knocked up? clomid, ovidrel, progesterone, BBT, TI
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: nothing much right now. I go in for an ultrasound tomorrow. Last month, I went in on CD 12 and I was already surging with two follicles so the RE wants to start monitoring a little earlier this cycle.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Depends on how much I want to be where I'm going.

What are you doing to get knocked up? Sex, BBT, OPK, PNV
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: This is my first true unmedicated cycle since temping. In the past I've had long or irregular cycles but not since temping. When I saw tons of EWCM the past week I was hopeful for an O on schedule. I've now passed my longest O date and still nothing.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Usually early. Being late makes me anxious so I always leave extra early to account for traffic or kid delays.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: If I put in a dummy temp 97.2 for tomorrow FF will give me CHs for CD 12. I'm not sure if I agree. We will find out tomorrow.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Rarely early.

What are you doing to get knocked up?: Letrozole days 3-7, PNVs, OPKs 2x a day, EOD sex in FW, plus BBT temping.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I was really hoping Letrozole would make my ovulation day more "normal". Oh well, next ultrasound is on Thursday, hoping it looks better.
GTKY: It really depends for me. I am always right on time for work and for personal things I am usually a little late.

What are you doing to get knocked up? Bbt, opk. Maybe green tea or Pom. Whatev
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: fuck cd 1. I love being woken up in the middle of the night feeling like someone is trying harvest my organs while I'm still using them. And I couldn't find my heating pad So much chocolate in my future.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I like to be early. The three year old sometimes has different ideas...

What are you doing to get knocked up? PNV, BBT, and sex
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: My period ended yesterday and my temp just dropped. Wtf. I really wish my cycles would even out again.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Early. My dad is ALWAYS late and it makes me crazy so I always leave an hour to a half hour early depending on distance. Unless im going to visit my mom or grandma because they don't care.
Cycle/Month: 2/2 CD: 6 What are you doing to get knocked up? Waiting, rather impatiently Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Feeling good about temping so far, hoping I am able to see a good pattern when the time comes. Also just feeling super impatient for my FW. GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I tend to be early.
What are you doing to get knocked up? Sex, BBT, PNV
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I have no clue what is going on in MH's head. He goes from researching car seats and strollers to saying "so, you are really trying to GKU". I'm so worried to push him, so I pretty much let him make the decision to go off BC. He seems so excited about being a dad, but then makes comments like that and I'm just looking at him like WTAF.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Early. Always early.

What are you doing to get knocked up? All the things
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: not much here. Just waiting to O. Yawn
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I prefer to be right on time. I hate when people are excessively early or late. My husband is like a drill sergeant and likes to be early to everything, so when I'm with him I'm early. When I'm alone I'm on time.
What are you doing to get knocked up? All the things
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Bleh. MH is coming up with all sorts of theories as to why I haven't O'd yet. Everything from "the room is cooler now because we don't have the heat on anymore, so your temps are off" to "you're temping at the same time now instead of temping after your longest block of sleep!" (I decided to try it to see if it made my chart less rocky) Hate to break it to him, but I think my body is just an asshole. I o'd on CD 33 a couple of cycles ago so I'm assuming this one is going to be similar.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Always early. I hate being hate and I hate when people are late.

I would probably drop dead if MH actually knew/cared at that level of detail. That's awesome! (I know it's annoying for you, but at least he "gets it")

Yes! I agree, a few cycles ago he had me in tears because he DIDN'T get it and was driving me crazy with unrealistic expectations/decisions. We had a sit down talk where I was pretty honest and told him I either needed him to chill the hell out or learn more about my cycle because he was making me stressed/anxious/unhappy. He's risen to the challenge and learned quite a bit. He really is awesome (imo).
Of course last week he suggested that possibly I was knocked up and that's why I hadn't o'd... so he still has his moments.
Since I'm sitting in my work parking structure biding time I'll get us started.
Cycle/Month:1

What are you doing to get knocked up? Sex and OPKs
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: This period is super heavy. I realize I was spoiled by the ones I had on BC.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? Usually try to be 5 minutes early, but ever since having a toddler this being on time thing is shot to hell. I still try, though.

What are you doing to get knocked up? BBT, OPK, etc...
R/R/CS: 1 bonus to coming off BCPs libido in overdrive, Happy Monday morning to me!!
GTYK: Are you always early, always late, or right on time? I used to be an always late person... For the past few years I moved into right on time (usually 3 minutes early - incidentally I also only give a 3 minute grace period to those who are late for my meetings - my company has a horrible culture of disrespect for time)
What are you doing to get knocked up? BBT, sex, opk
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I've been really bad about temping this cycle. I've missed 3 days in a row now. Ugh. I knew I was going to miss Saturday and Sunday from all my exhaustion but I totally forgot this morning. Hopefully today wasn't O day and I O later this week like I did last cycle.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? It depends. I try to be early all the time. If it's work or doctors/dentist appointments I am definitely always early. Everything else (like family functions) it's a crap shoot.

kaliRN, your observation that you feel a follicle growing struck a chord. I have been noticing cramps in my ovaries about 5-7 days before I actually O. I knew that was much too early to be ovulation pain. Could it be the follicle growing?? (Mind blown.) FX for you adorebel! Sorry for a shitty CD1 roastytoasty. I hope you feel better soon!
Cycle/Month: Cycle 5 (3 AL - benched)
CD: 17 (almost always my O day)
What are you doing to get knocked up? Vitamins, charting, and OPKs.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I would really love to O today. I overlaid my chart from this cycle with the cycle that I GKU, and they look really similar and have temps within the same ranges. So I am hoping this is a sign that my cycle is finally regulating back to some normalcy. Still frustrated I haven't been able to turn a positive OPK yet though.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I try to always be 5 minutes early or right on time. I have a lot of flexibility about when I can start my day at work though, and I tend to come in on the later side. I agree with requiressnacks - it is just as annoying to show up super early as it is to show up super late.
What are you doing to get knocked up? synthroid, temping, opks
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: My period was so weird this cycle. It was lighter than usual and lasted quite a bit longer. I also think that H was irritating my cervix. When I told him what I thought, he was so upset he had hurt me. I tried to explain, but it just didn't work. For him, blood = injury.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I'm usually later than I want to be to work, but extremely early for everything else.
What are you doing to get knocked up?: Nothing at the moment. I can barely remember to temp these days and I have been too tired to have sex too... so I need to step it up a notch.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: SOOO many baby announcements this week! 5! I was happy for them, not bitter... but also a little anxious. I am starting to feel a bit of anxiety as month 10 gets closer... that being said I can't get KU unless I have sex, so I need to get on it!
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time: Early. Even when I try to be late (like to a party). My H is always late and when we go somewhere together we are almost always exactly on time.
What are you doing to get knocked up? Somewhat EOD sex.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I got solid crosshairs today but I think FF is drunk. My normal post-o temps are above 98 degrees. Anyone mind taking a look and seeing if you agree or disagree?

mishy2010 I am super new at this, but I did play the chart interpretation game for like an hour yesterday, . I agree with you, I think your CH will get moved.
What are you doing to get knocked up? sex, temping, pnvs
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I got my typical O cramping last night, but my temp barely rose this morning. I feel like my temps might be crazy this month too because some nights I sleep with the window open, or ac on. They just aren't as consistent as they have been. I also have this weird dull pain on the opposite side I got the O cramping last night. Not sure what it is, but I'm attributing it to my RE putting my ute through torture last week.
GTKY: are you always early, always late, or right on time? I like to be early. I get anxious if I'm not there with like 5 minutes to spare!
